We know this upcoming season is going to look different. Through communications from OHF, OMHA and Haldimand County we were given direction on how this season will operate.
Working within these rules and with Caledonia, Cayuga and Dunnville Minor Hockey Associations we have the following structure in place.
We encourage all families to review to previously posted documents (posted Aug 12 and Aug 29) for all the details.

-Game play of 3 on 3 will begin October 19th and run until December 18th
-There will be a 14 day break from December 19- January 1.
-After the 14 day break, associations will work together to re-access the state of hockey, possibly have a reorganization of the bubbles and the stage of return to play based off OHF and OMHA direction.
-Play could resume as early as January 2nd if there are no changes.
